SQL Server 2000 DTS packages design

How can build and execute PKZip a text file in a dts package? I would like schedule the dts package, on a weekly basis, to do the following steps: 1) locate the text file in the source folder. 2) zip the text file. 3) transfer the zipped file to the destination folder. 4) notify me that the process is complete.

Then set PKZip Self-Extrating version to run against whatever your returned results are, as well as any additional commands you need to do. I, personally, have a Perl script to do the DTS package, zip the results, and email the archive out to the distribution list via SMTP.

There is one caveat: The Scheduled Task needs to run as an authenticated Windows userID, with that userID’s password; so if you change the password to that account, your Task will fail.
